Ingredients

14 oz Mackerel (fillet)

Salt

1/2 oz Ginger Root

4 Spring Onions

3 oz Sake

3 tbsp Sugar

1 tsp Soy Sauce

1 tsp Red Miso

Directions

1. Cut the fillets in 1” in width, and then slit the skin. Marinate the fish with a bit of salt for 10 minutes.

2. Place the cut fillets in a colander and cleanse with boiling water.

3. Boil rice wine (sake), fish stock and soy sauce, and then cover with aluminum foil. Set it on low heat for 5 minutes.

4. Water down the miso by adding a little soy sauce. Cover it over the fish then cook for 2 minutes. Occasionally stir or move the pan to avoid burning the miso. Add the onion then boil stock.
